Professional Bridal Makeup Artist & Hair Stylist Bringing Beauty & Luxury to Central VA & Beyond 5 Years of Professional Experience, Licensed, & Insured! Welcome to my world of beauty! I'm Jessica Mikuen, a fully certified hair and makeup artist serving the Central Virginia area and beyond with a passion for creating stunning looks that bring out the best in my clients. I use every client's natural beauty to create beautiful and enhancing looks to help them radiate confidence!

Jessica was referred to me by our wedding coordinator, Katelyn from Champagne Wishes. After talking with Jessica through a phone call and reviewing her work online. I selected her services for my wedding hair/ makeup and also used her services for my bridesmaids as well. We were planning a destination wedding from Texas and Jessica was able to coordinate a time with me when I was in town to do a hair/ makeup trial. She was accommodating to try a couple hair styles on me and we selected one. The day of my wedding she brought an assistant with her, per my request to do makeup for the bridesmaids while Jessica did everyone's hair and my makeup as well. They showed up early and ready to work! Everyone was happy with their hair and makeup. When it came to my hair, Jessica did exactly what I wanted and worked in some comments from my trial a few weeks back. My makeup also turned out perfect. Hair and makeup finished on schedule which was super important for the photos and all to start. My hair and makeup lasted the whole day, even with the late August humidity and storms later that evening. I would highly recommend Jessica for hair/ makeup.

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

If I could give more stars I would! Kristin was such a treat to work with. Not only does she do an AMAZING job with makeup, she is honestly such a sweet person. She made the day even more special and I was honored to have her a part of it. She was kind and sweet and open to ideas. Everyone in my family loved her. Makeup wise, she is awesome! My makeup stayed on all day! We got married in Luray Caverns and took photos by the willow trees, it was hot but the makeup stayed on and still looked amazing. If you need a makeup artist for your big day, Kristin is your girl! Thanks so much for being a part of my day!

I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

Rose did my hair and our bridal party's hair and did an excellent job! We did a hair preview a few weeks prior and she remembered exactly what I wanted. She also remembered some of the issues we had with the style at the preview and modified it to make it work best for the day. She brought extra bobby pins and hairspray and showed up perfectly on time (in fact she was a little early!). She was great and I highly recommend her! Adorn Salon did a great job coordinating the hair service. The stylist I was originally paired with was unexpectedly unable to work, but they were honest and worked quickly to ensure that they found a replacement.

A luxury beauty experience for the modern woman! My beauty philosophy is simple, "When you look good you feel good. When you feel good you do better".I started Nina Renee beauty because I believe that we all deserve to have the celebrity-style beauty experience of our dreams. As a high-end makeup artist servicing some of Washington DC's most prestigious residents for over eight years, I always found it hard to find my "Glam team".

Awarded Best of Zola
I would recommend NRBeauty Co. to any bride to be. Nina is incredibly attentive and communicative in addition to being transparent about her pricing. Andrea and Andejla were my glam team, and I absolutely loved their work, as did the rest of my bridal party. The makeup and hair lasted for at least 12 hours (likely more). NRBeauty Co. was by far the most professional team I communicated with. I appreciated the portal Nina managed which included all communications, invoices, and glam guides. My bridal party also appreciated the Google form they submitted in advance of the day to share their inspo & desired looks! Nina also confirmed when the glam team was en route the day of the wedding, which was highly appreciated given how stressful the morning-of can be. To top it all off, they ran on time / ahead of schedule the day of the wedding!

Kendra Bliss is a self-taught, bridal makeup artist from Lanham, MD. Her passion for makeup artistry began in college. In 2011, she realized there was a shortage of makeup artists for women of varying skin color and types. Since she loved to get her makeup done and did not have a place to go, she decided to educate herself and be there. Since then, she has learned immensely by taking makeup classes, and consistently practicing with family and friends. Now she is published and recognized in the bridal industry in publications such as MunaLuchi Bride!

Kendra is the ultimate professional! As a Photographer, I rely on my Makeup Artist to do work that makes it easy for me to photograph and retouch. Whenever Kendra does makeup for my clients (as she is my preferred vendor), the makeup is flawless and I'm rarely doing any retouching. Aside from her makeup application, she's the ultimate professional. She's always on time, reliable, my clients always have a good experience and she's extremley creative!

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.
